BULAWAYO – The Zimbabwe International Trade Fair (ZITF) has shifted the official opening ceremony of its 2026 edition by one day, from Friday, April 24 to Thursday, April 23.
The ZITF Company said in a public notice that all activities originally scheduled for Thursday would be moved to Friday at the same times to ensure a smooth flow of the programme.
“An updated programme will also be circulated in due course through official ZITF communication channels to reflect this change,” the notice said.
No reason was given for the change.
President Emmerson Mnangagwa attends the opening ceremony, typically with an invited foreign head of state. The change is likely to be connected to the president’s schedule.
The ZITF will run from April 20 to 25.
